Facebook, which was founded in 2004, experienced the latest glitch just hours after announcing they were working on the “like” and “share” buttons on the site.

The site experienced problems on October 21, when a problem occurred during “routine maintenance”.

It was down for several hours and left millions of disgruntled users without their social media fix.

In the Oscar-winning movie about Facebook, The Social Network, actor Jesse Eisenberg, playing Mark Zuckerberg, states: “We don’t crash ever. If the servers are down for even day our entire reputation is irreversibly destroyed.”
